Chapter 473: Greeting the Supreme Headmaster
Translator: _Tat_ Editor: Fish_Creek
“A mere completion levelled cultivator of the intermediate stage dare to provoke the Wan Jian House. Who do you think you are?”
Staring at the Lin Tian, who was now puking blood on the ground, Ling Xian’s expression was emotionless. He peered down at him the same way the gods look at their creations from above.
“Ehem, ehem, dammit, how can he be this strong?!”
Lin Tian’s face was pale as he puked out blood and stared at Ling Xian in horror. He truly didn’t think that he would be defeated after one attack!
He wasn’t the only one who was shocked. Everyone here was in awe as they looked at Ling Xian in disbelief.
One attack… defeated the Heaven’s Favorite who won 37 battles?
How is that possible?!
Everyone was astounded. They were well aware of how powerful Lin Tian was. Out of all the completion levelled cultivators of the intermediate stage in the Wan Jian House, nobody could defeat him. Yet he was knocked out by Ling Xian in one move. How could they not feel shocked?
They were shocked to the extreme!
After a moment of shock, everyone became excited and their blood began to boil!
They were filled with humiliation yesterday and thought that the Wan Jian House’s reputation was destroyed by Lin Tian. Sadly, the Wan Jian House just could not find anyone to go against Lin Tian. Thus, they could only let him go wild and laugh at the House.
But, how can they just swallow this? Now that Ling Xian knocked him out in one move, he has avenged them!
“Haha, good one! I sure want to see if he still dares to be arrogant in the Wan Jian House!”
“Good, knock him out! What a great battle!”
“Not bad. Lin Tian that bastard was so cocky. I never liked him.”
“One punch ended the fight. When did the Wan Jian House produce someone so fierce?”
Everyone chimed in to discuss the battle that was happening before them and ended the silence by cheering Ling Xian on. As much as they were ecstatic, some people were suspicious. A Heaven’s Favorite of such calibre should’ve rattled the Wan Jian House a long time ago. How come nobody’s heard of him?
“Dammit, this is not possible!”
Lin Tian forced himself to stand up as disbelief splattered all over his face. He screamed, “There is no way you are of the intermediate stage. Even those a stage higher than me cannot defeat me in one move!”
Hearing this, the few elders at the peak of the completion level shook their heads. They have investigated with their Qi, Ling Xian really was of the intermediate stage of the completion level.
Thus, when they heard Lin Tian’s accusation, they did not argue. Instead, they waited patiently for the exciting drama that will soon ensue.
“You lost, yet you do not accept reality?”
Ling Xian frowned slightly and glared at him. He didn’t want to waste time with someone like this. However, he didn’t want to explain anything and this caused Lin Tian to be certain that he was lying.
“Haha, I knew it. You are not of the intermediate stage!”
Lin Tian bellowed and his dimmed eyes once again gained color, “What a House this is. You cannot win against me so you send someone who’s a higher level than me. Blarg! One of the nine Houses would do something so shameful! I am embarrassed for you!”
“Hmm?”
Ling Xian’s eyes turned cold. Originally, his anger evaporated after he threw the punch. But this person was finding excuses for himself and lying over the truth. He is even insulting the House. How could Ling Xian not be mad?
“Good, very good, you are asking for humiliation.”
Ling Xian’s lips curled up into a cold smile. Then, he unleashed his Qi and it engulfed the entire arena.
The Qi was light and murky. For someone below the completion level, they would not feel this Qi. But anyone above the completion level could easily judge one thing.
This Qi belonged to a cultivator of the intermediate stage!
Truth was now before everyone’s eyes. What more was there to say?
“Dumb@ss.”
Everyone tauntingly stared at Lin Tian.
“He… he really is of the intermediate stage? I was defeated by someone my own level?”
Lin Tian was petrified from disbelief. The only reason he questioned Ling Xian was because he couldn’t ever imagine being knocked out by someone his own level.
Yet here they were. Ling Xian’s Qi has rubbed reality all over his face. No matter how much Lin Tian refused to believe, he had to believe!
He was attacked once again, this time he was hurt mentally as well as physically!
As the second generation of descendants from the Shura House, he always believed that he was strong enough to defeat everyone his own generation. In the entire Yunzhou, very few could be considered his opponent. Thus, he came to the Wan Jian House in hope of humiliating everyone!
Yet, he was defeated by a Heaven’s Favorite of the same level. This made him realize the definition of being both physically and mentally attacked.
“Impossible… I am a descendant of the Shura House. How can I be defeated by one move?” Lin Tian seemed to have lost his soul.
It was obvious that at this moment, his confident crumbled.
Ling Xian glared at him and stopped paying any attention. To the person he is today, a completion levelled cultivator of the intermediate level meant nothing. Even those who were of the undefeatable level when they were meditational cultivators pose no threat to him.
In other words, unless it was someone who was at a higher stage or level than him, nobody can hurt him.
If Lin Tian wasn’t so arrogant and annoying, Ling Xian wouldn’t have stepped out to teach a lesson to someone he was disinterested in.
“Okay, now this is done, I have to find out where the Supreme Headmaster is.” Ling Xian grinned and planned on finding someone to ask his questions to.
However, before he spoke out, he heard a loud laughter.
“Defeating a Heaven’s Favorite of the same level with one punch, you truly is someone who achieved the undefeatable realm of the foundational level.”
Then, 12 distinct silhouettes suddenly appeared inside the battle ring.
The leader of the pack had sharp eyebrows and a smooth complexion. He was gentle like a warm jade, yet he appeared extraordinary like an immortal. His temperament was naturally profound and divine.
It was Dao Wu Ji.
Behind him, 11 powerhouses stood tall and straight. Every single one of them had a terrorizing energy about them. None of them were ordinary – they were the Peak Leaders of the 11 peaks.
They have been watching the battles for a long while from afar. However, because of their position in the House, they couldn’t show themselves. But now, the winner has been determined, and it was time for them to come out.
“He appears very divine. He must be the Supreme Headmaster.”
As Dao Wu Ji checked out Ling Xian, Ling Xian checked him out as well. Because of his temperament, it was easy to guess who he was.
Then, Ling Xian grinned and bowed before everyone’s eyes. He then made a statement that forced everyone into stagnation.
“I, disciple, Ling Xian, formally greet the Supreme Headmaster.”
